David is a close friend of mine and so grateful to have had the opportunity to create a relationship with him and his family such wonderful people
Nothing but love ❤️
Big Ups!!! to my favourite Singer, Songwriter and all round incredible performer. You know you're a Legend when you can be on top of your game for well over 4 decades. Your name would forever be etched in the consciousness of every Reggae Music lover. Forever a Pulser!!!
So many good songs that I’ve enjoyed from this group.
Fortunately I saw them live in Sydney in the 90’s.
I cant explain the feeling i felt when I seen Steel pulse in concert. This band including Bob Marley change my who perspective and understanding of life and my Blackness on this planet. Black people rise up!!!!!!!!!
Genius Songwriter, performer.
What a great interview from a true legend, sharing his story of the power and spirit of Reggae. Unity and universal harmony!
One of my favorite and most admired musical groups. Bless all the members of Steel Pulse
I'm blessed to have lodged these humble & conscious guys in my little apartment in Sweden at the end of the seventies. They were just satisfied with vegetables, as they're vegetarians. I'd apologise for serving them meat. This interview highlights a lot with what we were taught at schools & other educational faculties. There were more & probably more educated fools amongst the blacks & coloured people. People who stood up against racism, oppression, segregation & human rights violations, will never be forgotten. Some names've been mentioned in the interview.
There're many, many more, like Rosa Park, Patrice Lumumba, Elijah Muhammad, Stokely Carmichael, Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, Rap Brown, Bob Marley, Thomas Sankara, Luis Farrakhan & many, many others, that contribute to a better & worthwhile living conditions for humanity.
There're obviously many conscious white people, who also participated in this struggle, who became enemies of the state. They were liquidated. As they did to Patrice, Malcolm, Martin Luther, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, Sankara & many,more. The education offered was somehow controlled. I'll quote Pink Floyd < Another Brick In The Wall> The great walls of Babylon 've fallen, the great Empires, even the youngest of them all, the British Empire.
David is one of the nicest , humble and down to earth man you will ever met.
Wonderful interview with David Hinds, one of several visionary musical artists that inspired a generation in the 70s, and have continued to do so ever since.
Bands like Steel Pulse, Aswad, Misty in Roots, Matumbi & dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson were the UKs most influential reggae music bands.
I grew up in Wembley, London in the 60s and 70s and I saw and witnessed many of things he speaks about.
WAS LISTENING STEEL PULSE SINCE A BOY, ONLY HAD KNOWLEDGE THEN, NOW I HAVE THE WISDOM, I SEE EVERYTHING THE SPOKE ABOUT, IS COMING THROUGH TODAY AS WE SPEAK.
Big up Steel Pulse they from my town and I remember seeing live supporting Bob Marley and they blow the whole place apart when the came on dress as the ku klux klan and fired up the song ku klux .. bad out deh 👍👍👍
Big up Steel Pulse saw dem live in Myrtle Beach met dem backstage Dread Hinds told me in so many words don't forget yah culture much respect
As a punk in 77 I and many other punks loved Steel Pulse and identified with the hassle and oppression the Rastas and blacks were getting. I managed to see them play live at Portsmouth in 79. Johhny Rotten said he loved Steel Pulse and The Stranglers loved the Pulse too. I couldn't get hold of a Steel Pulse badge to wear so I made one myself using Airfix paints, I felt so proud wearing that badge. Still love Steel Pulse today and 'Tribute to the Martyrs' is my favourite reggae album.
I went to see steel pulse 2 weeks ago in Ghana they were amazing !!!
So let’s give Steel Pulse their flowers now both old & new members. Bob Marley’s favourite reggae band.
David Hinds probably one of the most original voices period.
I hope their is one more album in them as I want to produce a track for them.
In an interview prior to their last LP release Mass Manipulation, David mentioned having written 50 to 60 songs over time, so we should expect more releases. I rest assured....
David looks young!

This is from a comment I left on their first Peel session.
I'm sure there are still many of you out there not familiar with Steel Pulse. Let's recount the scene back in the mid 1970's. First off, this is a BRITISH band, not Jamaican and their audience at the outset was largely black youth born in England. They loved Bob Marley and the Wailers and embraced Rastafarianism. This new music in Britain was fueled mostly by self contained bands, not by individual singers and these bands found great success not only in England but in other countries like Germany, France and USA. Birmingham's Steel Pulse was the most successful of all these UK bands, touring extensively, sometimes with punk bands. (They are the reggae band I have seen more than any other)
They were formed in 1975 by three friends in the Handsworth area of Birmingham. Originally a trio with a couple of singles, they expanded to a septet and that is what gives their music such a unique, layered sound. When they signed to Island Records (Bob Marley's label) they were exposed to a much larger audience and their debut LP Handsworth Revolution, delivered the goods in spades. This is a CLASSIC ROOTS REGGAE ALBUM and left little doubt that a non Jamaican band could play reggae with the best of them.
Got to big up the man John Peel again. This session was recorded about 10 months BEFORE the release of Handsworth Revolution. So once again he had the foresight to champion a band way before anyone else. All four of these Peel session songs appeared on that album so these are early versions of very famous songs, and as such are fascinating to hear.
Steel Pulse were joined by Aswad, Cimarons, Misty In Roots, Black Slate, Matumbi, Capitol Letters, and Black Roots in the flowering of reggae in England. These bands proved beyond a doubt that first class reggae could be created outside Jamaica.

I remember Bob Marley love Steel Pulse Music that he asked them to be his Opening Act on his European Tour
I still play my Marcus Garvey vinyl album. An original JA pressing well played but still storming sounds. Bless and respect.

Never too late....Even in Post Mortem.😊
They are in The Reggae hall of Fame, global suscess
So true this group made songs that are for today. They have the foresight.
They havn't?
Being from the states I never once thought reggae from Jamaica was more real than anywhere else but I understand it analogous to rap music here as opposed to the rest of the world , if a rapper doesn't sound American there no way to make big here( for example 21 Savage), that being said roots reggae in particular, bands from around the world has kept it alive , there are many that should have been super stars
Jamaica still has a much larger imprint.
Meet him many a time, his nephew was my best mate, very knowledgeable man
Steel Pulse❤️❤️❤️
Message well received! Love how you put it together JR, editing skills up

This man is a genius. He is one of my heroes. I was able to shake his hand once. I just thanked him for inspiring me and one god one aim one destiny. That shocked him. He has one of the greatest voices I've ever heard. He was much shorter than I ever imagined. Not that it matters at all.
I love his explanation of how different audiences received their music. The level of understanding of what black and white audiences wanted and needed was insightful. Bless Up Steel Pulse.... Your House is one of my favorites btw ❤️💛💚

I got like every reggae artist in my playlist.bob marley I consider him a legend but David hinds is a different kind of legend when it comes to reggae.my favorite reggae band I put steel pulse ahead of bob marley in my book.

where does David live. I just gotta meet this Prophet of reggae. This is the guy who shaped my life and my music choices and made me concious about things I would never have known or thought of. Steel Pulse opened my eyes to reality. Dammit!
Rasta this and
Dreadlocks that! wow. when and where can I ever meet David? Help me someone!
I remember playing my Uncle's Sound Musical Downbeat at Nottingham Palais 1973 / 1974 and the band on Stage was. Steel Pulse they used to dress as Skinheads,checked Brutus Shirts,Levi jeans Doc Martin's boots I came back to London and telling people about this group of Black Skinheads they thought I was mad then Klux Klan and Prodigal Son came out on 7" singles then they believed me.
The year was 1974 /1975 the band was unknown in London at the time
Too informative .....to the core ...to make I and I revolution
thanx David HINES you refresh our minds going bk to 60,s jfk assassination and MR X, HOW reggae evolved in UK WHEN it was accepted and popular with punk /skinheads
thanx we noticed in 1978 to 1981 these folks were even travelling to the record shop at BOBS residence now a museum and they will talk and mix with rastas on location.I heard mike Jackson and his mum visited evidence that GONG had a mysterious energy .Like the record shop created a free invitation internationally to music lovers ,every day was joy and blessings

The trod was the same for Mutabaruka the books they read
Mutabaruka, the Great Dub Poet!! ....Yes!!!
I expected a short docu on Steel Pulse but see an interview with David Hinds. I loved them but it is also fair to say that True Democracy was their last full good album. Earth Crisis contained already some very commercial poppy songs and there I lost my interest to the band. Same applies to Aswad. First 4 albums are really great and I still listen to them.
Alguien sabe si esto está con subtitulos en español ....?? No hablo inglés y me gustaría mucho saber lo que dice.
HalaluYah 🙌🏾
Rastafari teach dem rich dem,revolution

My earliest introduction to social conscious reggae was precisely in 1982 as a youth in the then newly independent Zimbabwe when I bought the Steele Pulse vinyl albums Caught You Dancing and Handsworth Revolution. The voice of David Hinds just mesmerized me. I was later to realize that this was indeed British Reggae alongside other defining groups of that time like Matumbi, Aswad, Misty in Roots and UB40. The last three British reggae groups even came on tour to my country at that period and whose concerts I attended with much fanfare and pride.
